Chocolate Chip Cookies

My chocolate chip cookie recipe is always asked for!  I took the recipe from Crisco and added a little bit more vanilla and some extra love, and amazing cookies!  I normally make this recipe in quadruple or more and put it in the freezer.  They freeze well and still make great cookies!  Here is the link Chocolate Chip Cookies and then here is my actual recipe.

Chocolate Chip Cookies
  • 3/4 stick Crisco® Baking Sticks Butter Flavor All-Vegetable Shortening

  • 1 1/4 cups firmly packed light brown sugar

  • 2 tablespoons milk

  • 1 1/2  tablespoon vanilla extract

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 3/4 cups allpurpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 (6 oz.) package semi-sweet chocolate chips (1 cup)


  • HEAT oven to 375ºF
    Combine shortening, brown sugar, milk and vanilla in large bowl. Beat at medium speed of electric mixer until well blended. Beat in egg. Combine flour, salt and baking soda. Mix into shortening mixture until just blended. Stir in chocolate chips.
    Drop by rounded measuring tablespoonfuls 3 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheet. I use a little ice cream scoop.
    Bake 8 to 10 minutes for chewy cookies, or 11 to 13 minutes for crisp cookies. As soon as they come out of the oven I sprinkle them with just a tiny dusting of salt.  Brings out the sweet taste just a little bit more. Cool 2 minutes on baking sheet on a cooling rack. Remove cookies to rack to cool completely.
